First Published on 1 November 2021 in Facebook Avicenna Farm sits on 800+ acres of fertile land with fertile pastures for grazing livestock all year round. Water is also in abundance all over the farm from ground water located just 10 meters underground. Avicenna Farm is currently home for almost 1000 ewes and lambs, and its size is big enough for our flock of sheep.

The aim is to prevent the carry over of worms and parasites into our property, and the orally fed medication, using a drench gun, stops the contamination of our pastures wi
